The Master of the Eucharides-Stamnos in Copenhagen

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  20 December 2013

Extract

The only extant vase with the love-name Eucharides is a red-figured stamnos of severe style in the National Museum at Copenhagen. Twenty-three vases must be assigned to the painter of the Eucharides-stamnos, among them such well-known pieces as the Danae-stamnos in St. Petersburg, the Tityos-vase in the British Museum, and the krater with Sarpedon or Memnon in the Louvre. His work, though not of the highest quality, is interesting in many ways; so I propose to make a list of his remaining vases, to describe the more prominent characteristics of his style, and to indicate very briefly the place he occupies in the history of Attic vase-painting.

page 217 note 2 I do not include under ‘neck-amphorae’ either amphorae of Panathenaic shape or the four rf. amphorae of Nikcsthenic shape (1. Vienna, K. K. Museum, 226, Masner, , Cat. p. 39Google Scholar; 2. Rome, Mr. Aug. Castellani (bf. and rf. like last); 3 and 4, Louvre, G 3 and G 2 (Pottier, Album, Pl. 88; by the painter Oltos).

page 218 note 1 The amphora with twisted handles, Louvre, G 30 (Pottier, Album, Pl. 90) is slightly earlier (perhaps by Euphronios); it has the same mouth in two degrees, but the foot is lost: it is not a pointed amphora. Louvre, G 106, is a companion piece to G 107 and bears the name of Euphronios; the foot is restored, and I am not sure if either neck or handles belong to the vase.

I conjecture the inscription on G 107 to be a miswriting for a δοκεĩ Σμικρῷ, ναί continuing a (ὁ δεĩνα) καλός on a pendant vase (cf., e.g., the Memnon vase No. 35 in Klein's list, Lieblingsinschriften, pp. 60–61).

page 219 note 1 I count 17 rf. neck-amphorae with ridged handles (excluding Nolan-amphorae with ridged handles), and 13 with double handles. The mouth γ is found on no other rf. ridged amphora, but it is found on three other double amphorae, two of them by the Dutuit-master (J.H.S. xxxiii. p. 108Google Scholar). The cylindrical projection is found on six other ridged amphorae, but on no other doubles.

page 226 note 1 This careful piece may be compared with the far finer representation of the same subject on the British Museum volute-krater by the Berlin-master (Gerhard, A. V. Pl. 204; J.H.S. xxxi. Pl. 14)Google Scholar. I may say here that the sadly mutilated volute-krater, Louvre, G. 166, is also by the Berlin-master, and should be added to my list of that painter's works.
